Energy efficiency and flexibility
An EBNER floater furnace facility sets new standards, even as commissioning is completed ahead of schedule.
Following successful installation and commissioning of a first floater furnace facility in 2019, we are proud to be able to report on another interesting project for a very valued customer, Chalco Ruimin in China. Over the course of this project a second CASH line was installed, and the line has now successfully gone into operation far earlier than the scheduled date. This expansion does not just underline EBNER’s expertise in the implementation of challenging industrial projects – it is also a demonstration of continuing collaboration and the mutual trust between EBNER and Chalco Ruimin.
The new facility will primarily be used to produce aluminum coils for the automotive industry, a sector that demands the highest possible precision, efficiency and quality. With its state-of-the-art technology and innovative solutions, our facility will ensure that Chalco Ruimin is able to fulfill the high expectations of this challenging market. The successful installation of the production line allows our customer to significantly expand production, further strengthening their position in the market.
RAPID PROGRESS THANKS TO A COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIP
A significant factor in the success of the project was the outstanding cooperation between the EBNER team, which consisted of experts from EBNER’s offices in both Asia and Austria, and the technical specialists at Chalco Ruimin. Thanks to close contact and the collegial exchange of information, any approaching challenges could be identified well in advance and dealt with efficiently. Seamless coordination and the high degree of dedication shown by all those involved contributed significantly to the fact that all project goals were not just met – they were exceeded.
Of particular note is the fact that the project was able to stay on what was already an extremely ambitious schedule. Due to the excellent coordination and focused project management, we were able to start production at the new facility far earlier than originally planned. This early start brought significant benefits to our customer: returns could be generated more quickly, and potential penalties caused by delays could be prevented. This was a clear demonstration of the commercial efficiency of our solutions.
HIGH ENERGY EFFICIENCY, MAXIMUM PRODUCTION FLEXIBILITY
The technology of the facility is state-of-the-art, and is specially tailored to fulfill the specific requirements of the automotive industry. Extremely high energy efficiency, maximum production flexibility and high temperature accuracy (± 2 °C) are hallmarks of the new processing line. It makes a significant contribution to the optimization of our customer’s manufacturing processes and increases their competitiveness.
We are proud that this project has made another important contribution to our customer’s value-added chain. Its successful conclusion underscores EBNER’s ability to complete complex, large-scale projects on time and at a high standard of quality. At the same time, the project reinforced the strength of EBNER’s and Chalco Ruimin’s partnership and it is expected that this partnership will lead to more collaborative projects in the future.
We are confident that, working together, we will be able to overcome any future challenges and EBNER is looking forward to the next successful collaboration.
